At the elimination Of the battle of Sailors
creek. when We got into the "hand to hand"
part OF 1t, there was q brass cannon belong
ing to the rebel battery stuck in the mud and
the artillery men had left it, when it was
discovered that 1t was loaded. Ii was not in
position to be OF any service to either friend
or foe, while If it could be extricated from
the mud 1t was good for At least one shot IT
somebody. Three &phnnies" and two "Yanks"
took IN the situation about the same time, and
throwing aside their empty rifles rushed for
this gun. a "Yank" aud johnnie" caught
the sponge staff simultaneously and began
fight for it, while the other two "Johnniesr
caught hold Of one wheel and tried to turn
the muzzle of the gun toward US. The other
"Iaik' caught the opposite wheel Thus
they stood and tugged away for two or three
minutes, until our men coming up drove the
"Johnnie." away. For q few minutes things
were mighty lively; the "Johnnies" got a bat
terry into position and began throwing shells
into the crowd, where blue and gray were
mixed together, but a section Of one Of our
batteries coming up on the dead run soon
drove them off. and settled the matter for the
day.--Trefol" in Buffalo News.

In revenge he had A arrested for stealing the
horse, and both went to the pen. To add to
the complications, ID, the real owner Of tha
